Title: Image with upgrade
Post by: Josellis on December 09, 2006, 01:38:46 am

I am still new, and I still have no idea what is a marauder or a basilik. Yes, I have seen the manual, but I'm not a memory card, I cannot remember everything. Sometimes when I'm alien, I want to transform into something I've seen, but I do not know which one it is, so why not putting a photo of the creature with the description of the upgrade?

there is a description of each alien in the black box that you use to upgrade...you dont need to remember the appearance of the aliens if youre alien, just remember what they do. its impossible to forget when every time you try to evolve to them theres a paragraph explaining it.

Well having the image of the upgrade would also improve the easthethics. Instead of hav black and white (and grey) menu, you can have a picture.

When i was new i sort of wanted the same thing... oh.. "dragoon" sounds neat... transform.. and.. you find yourself being big and slow when maybe you thought it was more like the marauder... you see your treammates using a particular alien and wonder what that alien is..

It doesn't take long to figure it out.. especially if you really did read the manual.. but it wouldn't be hard to superimpose the little icons on the menu (we already have some that show up after you evo on your hud) at least.
